Precision pinion solution for competitive Sakura D6 tuning

The 3Racing SAK-D651/PU pinion set supplies two M1.2 x 14 x 34mm aluminium pinions, each with 8 teeth, anodised purple for part identification. These pinions are dimensioned for 1/10 scale Sakura D6 Sport installations and are produced to tight tolerances for repeatable gear mesh under race conditions.

Design focus for race setups

These pinions are manufactured with attention to tooth form consistency and concentricity to reduce runout and maintain a stable contact pattern. The reduced rotating mass compared with heavier alternatives aids throttle response, while the aluminium material balances stiffness and serviceability for frequent tuning cycles.

Practical tuning and service guidance

For optimal results, set backlash using a shim or shimless method, verify alignment under a bench test, and recheck after initial track runs. The SAK-D651/PU pinions integrate into established Sakura D6 drivetrains and provide predictable behaviour when changing final drive ratios for different track layouts.

Inspect bore concentricity on the motor shaft, confirm set screw seating, and measure axial runout. Correct mesh and concentric mounting are critical for long tooth life in race use.
Check the contact patch after the first two runs and then during regular maintenance intervals. Look for edge wear or inconsistent contact that could indicate misalignment.
They are suitable when paired with correct gear ratios and proper mesh. For very high torque applications, monitor wear and consider gear material trade offs based on track conditions and tuning goals.
